About the Image(s)

This photo of a Talamanca Hummingbird was captured this past March at a lodge in the cloud forest region of San Gerardo de Dota in Costa Rica. This lodge is known for attracting a large variety of the abundant species of hummingbirds. I have hundreds of photos from our time there but selected this one because of the body and wing movement.
